We have here a super funky watch by a relatively small watch company named Tressa. They were not the biggest but in my mind certainly the boldest and brave enough to put some eccentric designs into production.
Both retro and futuristic in todays eyes, the watch doesn't look out-dated and in my mind it is much more tasteful comparing to the new modern retro look-a-likes which somehow plasticky and souless. Have a look and judge it by yourself.
